<br />
I know that it seems as if I've dropped off this great earth... truth is, I haven't had much of a mojo for crafting or creating. Now that the weather is getting warmer my mood is improving so stay tuned... I've been researching a new cutter because sadly the cricut isn't cutting it anymore. I never really realized how limited I was with this cutter until I started my research, what do you guys use?? I need a cutter that I can use to cut cardstock, vinyl, and rhinestone templates... I would love an extended length cutter so who knows!!! <br />
<br />
Anywho, I came across this awesome site TRW(http://therhinestoneworld.com/)so I decided to try my hand at rhinestones. I know that the cricut has a terrible reputation for cutting circles but I decided to give it a go. Using the Silhouette rhinestone starter kit, TRW purchased template, MTC, my Geeko heatpress and rhinestones from Ebay I was able to create this Mega Bling Beauty... Was it difficult, heck yes... the wonky circles made the process nearly impossible so I had to hand set most of the stones. Overall, I'm very pleased with the outcome and my daughter LOVED her new shirt!<br />

The kids and I are hooked. Everytime we visit the mall we treat ourselves to this awesome little treat, so imagine my delight when I stumbled across these little bad boys on a recent ACM run!!! I couldn't wait to get home and try them out so let me give you the rundown. For under $7.00 bucks you are able to make 8 or so full size pretzels or an assortment of other pretzel shapes (get creative, we did) AND they taste exactly like AA's!! I watched a couple youtube videos and the kids and I were off to create some umm, umm good pretzels!! We've purchased several kits since our first try and let me say these pretzels haven't disappointed us yet ( you really must try them, they come with a salt and cin/sugar pack)... <br />

This LO is one of my fav's. While in Myrtle Beach for the 2011 Nationals the kids all decided to get tattoos. You really had to be there to see the serious expressions on their little faces ( I tried to capture them to the best of my abilities!). After getting their tatts the kids couldn't stop showing them off to anyone who would look, I think J kept his for almost two weeks! <br />

Soooo my next few post will be scrapbook layouts that I have completed recently.<br />
My youngest DS plays on an AAU basketball team and during tournament time our family goes all in!!! This LO captures some great memories during the 2011 National's (We placed 5th, not too bad for a first year team). These young guys put there heart and soul into the game and I couldn't be more proud!<br />

<br />
<i>I pray that you all are having a wonderful holiday season!! As usual, our home was filled with family,fun,and lots of love. <br />
Christmas is my favorite time of the year and I enjoy looking for creative (yet inexpensive ways) to dress the house... This year, thanks to Pinterest and all the wonderfully creative people who share their ideas/posts I was able to give our home just the right touch of DIY love that I was looking for. If you haven't joined pinterest you are really missing out, send me a message if you would like an invite! Hugs and Happy New Years to you all!<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">The past week I have been super busy preparing teacher appreciation gifts. </div><div style="text-align: center;">This year my kids have a great group of teachers who deserve to be appreciated daily.Our teachers do an amazing job and I cannot thank them enough!!! </div><div style="text-align: center;"> I wanted our TAP gift to be useful and something that the teachers would enjoy. My ideas were all over the place and I couldn't seem to focus on a central theme ( that's what I get for blog hopping). Anywho, using the ideas from several blogs I was able to put together a few items that I hope our teachers will enjoy. In total I created 15 TAP gifts ( not all teachers received a gift basket). </div><div style="text-align: center;">Thanks for stopping by!!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Long time no chat... I'd like to apologize for the absence, once again life got in the way and I haven't had any free time to enjoy my hobbies... Anywho, Island V over on the SST forum of the cricut mb started a mini album swap ( thanks Island). The mini was supposed to be a love theme and specific to our swap partner. Now, I've only created one other mini before and it was very basic (not swap worthy for sure) soooo after hours of blog hopping and checking out tutorials I settled on a mini album tutorial from Kathy @ <a href="http://paperphenomenon.blogspot.com/2011/02/paperbag-mania.html">Paper Phenomenon </a>. Why on earth I choose this mini out of all the mini's that I came across is beyond me... I think I let my Sistas ( you know who you are) hype me up into thinking it would be a breeze:-). So here it is, I didn't take pics of every page or of all the interaction but you will get the jest. Thanks for looking!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Don't get me wrong, I love vinyl but I remember a time when I also loved to papercraft!!! Sooooo for the next week I have decided to "push" my beloved vinyl to the side and focus solely on some paper projects that I have wanted to complete for some time... Bloggers, please wish me luck as I have a mini-album swap that is due on the 28th!!! </div><div style="text-align: center;">Anywho, my family is a huge sports family so I created a car decal with my son's AAU Basketball team logo...

Anywho, my MIL is going through breast cancer treatments and I wanted to make something to help brighten her spirts... </div><div style="text-align: center;">For this tumbler I used the Fight Like A Girl svg that Todd over on the <a href="http://forums.surecutsalot.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=14679&hilit=fight+like+a+girl">scal forum</a> created, thx Todd! Brenda and the random words were created with the Hot Fudge font...

I had orders that HAD to be completed, basketball mom duties to fulfill and my regular job to deal with ( did I mention, I hate being sick).</div><div style="text-align: center;">Anywho, on to the important stuff:-)... </div><div style="text-align: center;">I was asked to decorate 14 aluminum water bottles for my 8 year old cousin's birthday party. The birthday girl requested each guests name with butterflies on one side of the bottle<span style="font-size: x-small;"><em> <span style="font-size: small;">(easy enough)!</span></em></span> I wanted to do something special on the Bday girls water bottle so I found an awesome Justin Bieber svg file on the <a href="http://forums.surecutsalot.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=13108&hilit=justin+bieber">SCAL forum</a> <span style="font-size: x-small;"><em><span style="font-size: small;">( thanks Sweetness4713 for sharing your cool file)</span></em> <span style="font-size: small;">and I added this to the opposite side. The name font is <em>Storybook</em> created using MTC and the butterflies are a random clip art image that I traced in MTC. </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

This year my family hosted Christmas dinner, our home was full of family, laughter, and love...

The first tumbler was created for my sista Tsrel over on the Cricut MB... Every year, we exchange Christmas gifts... what better gift then a personalized who dat tumbler and ornament!<br />
